Purses

I've done a little bit more work on a couple of the purses I started. I'd already sewn up one of the slubbed white ones, and now I've added the button and button-hole. I thought doing large-ish blanket stitch around the button hole would suit the colours and style of this purse.

I used a cream vintage button, and kept the natural uneven edges again for the back pocket.

The other purse I worked on was one made from a piece of felt and squares of silk paper. It was one of my favourite pieces, the silk squares are so shiny. I'm still undecided about the button, I'm thinking of using this vintage one:

This is the back:

And the inside, I like these purses with two pockets because you get to see more felt than on the zipper ones:

About Me

Hi, I'm Zed. I love colour, and textures and putting them together to make colourful texturey felt.
I'm relatively new to felting, so I'm still trying out lots of different methods and techniques and learning along the way. I mainly wet felt, but needle felt now and again.
